The effect of altitude on distillation temperature
I assume there is an effect, is there a formula that can be applied to ~correct temp for altitude?

1. Find the "air pressure vs altitude" calculator via Google.
2. Find the "pressure vs boiling point" nomograph at the Sigma-Aldrich website.
There might be a more direct way.
